In the Hornet (I know, very different airplane) the pilot has a functional kneeboard on his left leg.  This is the best thing ever when flying in VR.  You can flip pages right there without an immersive-breaking pop-up window.  Would be nice to have this in the Corsair too (if the older pilots used kneeboards).  Just a wish.  Thanks!

Yeah, I just discovered in the Warbirds that when you "Show Pilot" in the Mustang the knee-board works on his left thigh. It's the only one that works though,  I checked the Jug and the Spit and it's a Caucasus map that won't work for your current location,i.e. Normandy, and Channel maps. I wish the Mossie had a working pilot, but the cockpit is a ghost town. I need to  check out some of my other modules and see if they have a functioning in cockpit pilot knee-board.

I noticed various issues with various modules over the years and this topic doesn't seem to have a top priority with most Dev's. Hence, I use OpenKneeboard and the software lets you manipulate the Kneeboard so you can place in anywhere (inside/outside cockpit, on your knee) and resize, angle, etc. Two other benefits are, it works with pdf format and and if you buy a simple 'pen tablet (fi Wacom One, 35Euro Amazon), and then you can even hand write on it. Very handy, especially in VR, and less immersion breaking.
